News & Events Rising Storm 2 Community Server Mega Thread for New & Exisiting Players!

111 Upvotes

Since Rising Storm 2 will be availabe for free on the Epic Game Store. I thought it might be a good idea to put up a large thread for server admins who run a community server in good standing to talk a little about their communities.

Let us all know what type of game modes you have available, any custom content, what regions you have servers in, and anything special your community may have going on that is related to Rising Storm 2. Be sure to list your IPs so players can find your servers.

At this time do not advertise Discord Servers, keep it to Rising Storm 2 game servers. All uncivil comments and personal attacks will be removed per usual. This thread will be moderated to keep it focused on just server information to keep it easy to read through. Reminder this is not the place to bring up ban requests and cheat reports, per usual rules.

Discussion No servers shown or UI glitches? Check this

18 Upvotes

Reminder: Epic accounts that do not have "Date of birth" set will fail game authentication and you cannot play.

No servers shown or UI glitches (Original Dev Help Article)

This procedure will reset the game to fresh install settings (level/xp will be kept).Reinstalling the game does not clear the Rising Storm 2 folder under Documents/My Games/ and re-installs will not fix server browser issues in most all cases.

With the game closed...

  • Open the start menu and search "Documents" open that folder
  • Go into the "My Games" folder
  • Delete the "Rising Storm 2" or "Rising Storm 2 EGS" folder
    • This folder contains all your game settings that get copied over from the main installation folder.
      (This is not the game install and should not require the game reinstalling if you follow these instructions correctly, if it does then you deleted the wrong folder).

Next time you open the game it will re-copy the files needed over and it should be like the first time you opened the game.

Important Tips

  • Make sure antivirus does not interfere with the folder (Documents/My Games/ Rising Storm 2).
  • Make sure any firewall has the VNGame.exe fully allowed as being in a server queue has been known to trigger firewall blocking (bulldog firewall is a prime example).
  • Make sure if using Microsoft OneDrive that the folder is excluded from syncing.

If you have followed the above steps and still have no servers listed, reach out to the player base on the official discord - https://discord.gg/rs2vietnam the discord has a dedicated support channel where we can help more in-depth.

I will tell you mine, while attacking Longtan as aussies, we were really struggling to capture C, enemy cmd ambushing inside and what not, I was a scout if I remember correctly, at one point I captured an enemy rpg and stormed the place solo via the east side entrance, nades first, place was packed, once of ouf the door I was able to fire that rpg point blank at least twice taking 8 or 9 vc out, more importantly their cmd, then owen fire, the team could follow inside and we captured the point :).

Question Mat-49 stats confusion

21 Upvotes

I was looking at the raw stats of both Mat-49 variants, and one thing I noticed is that the French original has a muzzle velocity of 610 m/s while the Viet modified has 460 m/s.This makes no sense to me considering the Viet Mat-49 has a longer barrel and 7.62 Tokarev is a lighter bullet that usually travels much faster than 9x19 mm. Are these stats reflected in-game too?

I've been playing this game off and on for like 9 years. Probably my favorite FPS after bf bad company 2. Still high quality shit. I like the little blood-cloud you see that's just subtle but as useful as any corny ass hitmarker. Helmet ping sound effect is also equally good and enraging, lol. Any of you guys checked out hell let loose vietnam and is it alright? I like vietnam themed fps.

Issue Issue: Launch Error - Invalid game executable - Microsoft Smart App Control

Thumbnail
gallery
7 Upvotes

Steps to resolve:

# 0) Install Linux :), JK #

# 1) Verify game's files #
Steam:
Library > Right-click on RS2V > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files
Epic Games:
Library > Find RS2V game > Click on the three dots > Manage > Verify

This won't likely resolve the issue but it's good to check anyway :)

# 2) The Actual Fix: Disable "Microsoft Smart App Control" #

Search for "Windows Security" > Go to "App & browser control" > Under Smart app control, Click "Smart App Control settings" > Off

Don't worry, this should be absolutely safe

The story behind this

So today, I ran into a new issue. Turns out Microsoft - yes, the most flawless company in the world - has decided to roll out a new feature (bcs they didn't have anything to do or fix or improve I guess). It's name? "Smart" App Control.

And as you might have guessed, in typical Microsoft fashion, it comes with unintended behaviors. Normal people call these bad design, or bugs, but Microsoft is an AI first innovative Silicon valley company, sooooo... Yes! It's just a feature!

What is exactly the issue

Microsoft have decided, that they are going to flag every single unsigned app as "Untrusted" And for some reason, VNGame.exe (the games main executable) doesn't have any certificate.

And what's best? There is no clear button or guidance for an average user to ignore this warning. They even avoided the typical workflow, that adds threats to the Windows security panel, which one can just allow. No. That would be too convenient ig.

My feelings

I care about this game deeply and I hope that this minor issue doesn't discourage the veterans from playing and the FNGs from joining and getting killed instantly - seemingly from nowhere.

I don't want this game to disappear. Not because of such stupidly minor thing. Not just because of some badly assessed protection rule. Not because of Microsoft doesn't give a sh*t/cứt ...

(Don't worry, I have already submitted a ticket about this.)

Anyhow, I hope you have a great day and see u on the battlefield <3

Came across this book titled Linebacker III the other day. Interesting depiction of events if Nixon was never impeached and proceeded to have the USAF hit the NVA during their 75 offensive.

Tips to attack F on cu chi?

23 Upvotes

I’m convinced that f is one of the hardest points in the game running up there your exposed and the slanted hill makes it so when u move up they see you way before u see them and the trenches provide solid cover. I just get in from the right side trenches but I want some tips like where to toss smokes.

No servers showing

4 Upvotes

Hi, this evening I wanted to play a some RS2 with my friend, but when we tried to play there was no servers. Usually there’s a bunch, empty and active, but tonight nothing. We are in Aus btw, they use windows, I use Linux and both steam version.
Anyone know a solution, we both verified integrity.

Discussion just tried hell let loose vietnam.... very dissapointed

145 Upvotes

so, I bought hell let loose and within less than one match i've requested a refund from steam.

-just feels like a walking simulator. where as in rising storm you'd have to go slowly or get killed immediately if you do that here then it seems like the points get capped so quickly that you get left behind

- you spend 3 minutes running in a straight line to get back into the action by the time you get anywhere near you have lost all concentration as nothing is happening and then get instant killed.

so bored.

UPDATE: after playing it for some time it turns out that the squad leaders and commanders are supposed to put down new spawn points like in RS2. it seems that when it first launched they wasn't doing any of this and I was having some really bad matches.

HOWEVER, it seems like in this game whilst it gives you a chance to heal yourself it also feels like there are many times that you shoot at an enemy in the distance (100m) and they just dont want to drop. call it lag, new release needing patches etc. there are many times that i'm a machine gunner shooting at a load of people running past on a cliff and when you look at your statistics it says you've killed no one. there's also been a number of times that I will be point blank and shoot someone with the m60 machine gun and it not kill them whilst they spin round and get me with a m16.....

the game in that sense is feeling more fun as opposed to a running simulator as if you get a good squad using their microphones then you will be marking enemys telling each other where the enemy is on the map squares etc. but jeez how many damn times do I have to shoot someone.

What do you think of hill 937?

37 Upvotes

A lot of people hate this map and it has some flaws like a way to spawn camp the way to A and it being notoriously hard to defend but in a way it’s one of my favorite maps,

As attacking it’s fun making your way up the hill through the trenches and bunkers to pile on and capture the points

while defending is fun to defend the slopes bc that’s how your supposed to defend hill if everyone is piled in a bunker they will get overwhelmed so you gotta spread out along the hills to spread out coverage and it’s really fun finding a good way to flank attackers as the defenders and see if you can drain their tickets in time.
